Mahoning Valley Race 2 - Race 2 - Claiming
UNPREDICTABLE BAY (2) has progressed nicely in his last couple of runs. Finished third at this track (Dirt) two starts back then got the job done by half a length last time out over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Alexander Chavez scored on him last time and retains the ride. Finds a suitable race and can make it back-to-back successes. BOUDIN (4) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1207m at this track, beaten 3.5 lengths after being in the firing line on the bend. Likely improver with strong prospects. MSHINDI (5) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 8 lengths when fifth in a 1207m contest at this track two weeks ago. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. DREAM KNIGHT (6) is a genuine type with six minor placings from eight starts this campaign. Continued the trend last time out when third over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways.
